Canary Islands – Gran Canaria Dunes: The Witcher Filming Location

Set along Gran Canaria's sun-burnished southern coastline, the Canary Islands – Gran Canaria Dunes offer a sweeping expanse of wind-sculpted golden sands backed by the Atlantic. The site was a favored backdrop for Witcher productions, where the otherworldly dunes and volcanic earth stood in for the Continent's remote frontiers, infusing scenes with a sense of vastness and danger. Over centuries these dunes have shaped an austere landscape that sustains hardy flora and migratory birds, lending atmosphere and texture to every frame. Visitors today feel the hush of wind and sea here, a place where epic storytelling and natural beauty collide in a landscape both harsh and beautiful.
